This is the same build plus a lot more. Yes it costs $90 more but here's what it offers...
-A better optimized CPU (Also more efficient)
-A full ATX motherboard for Sli and expansion potential
-Modular PSU for easier building, better temps
-Better Brand of RAM with better heat spreaders
-Double the hard drive space (Trust me, PC games are BIG)
-Beffier and quieter graphics card
-Nvidia Software (Game recording, automatic settings)
-Full option to Sli, all current parts are sufficient
*I left case for your preference but I like the 200r from Corsair

Dont get an x1. Waste of money. Get a ps4 if anything.

Ps4+pc

I'd also like to say good for you for considering PC. It is actually a really good community. Redditors call it the PCMasterrace because it is far superior to console in graphics/gameplay/control and community. I'd really love to bring you into the community and play games online with you.

Just get a pc with an i3, fx 4300, or fx 6300 so you have an upgrade path. Do not get a 750k unless you plan to rebuild a new pc when you decide to upgrade.

I only thing I would change is to save up and get a stronger higher wattage PSU so that way when you upgrade in the future you can upgrade the CPU and the GPU instead of having to buy a new PSU.
